Arellano gets Jalalon replacement in high-scoring Dela Torre

Filling the shoes of the most decorated Chief is the definition of difficult, but if anybody’s up to the task, it may very well be the most decorated Brave.

Arellano University has secured the services of high-scoring guard Guilmer Dela Torre to help make up for the loss of court general Jiovani Jalalon.

Dela Torre is coming off a Mythical selection in the NCAA Juniors which saw him average 21.6 points, including 47 threes in total, 4.4 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.3 steals.

The five-foot-nine hotshot spearheaded back-to-back playoff appearances for the Braves – a breakthrough in the history of their program. As such, he is considered to be the first top prospect the school has produced.
